"When you reach the Central Plains in the future, don't come looking for me. We'll meet when the time is right!"
"You must walk your own path to truly appreciate the scenery that belongs to you. I'm not worried about your safety, but there's one thing that concerns me deeply!"
"What are you worried about, sister?" Gu Feng asked with a serious expression.
"I'm very concerned about your personal situation. If you have any illnesses, whether physical or psychological, just tell me..."
Hearing this, Gu Feng looked utterly confused, unsure of what Zhu Qingyan was trying to convey. "I feel perfectly healthy. There's nothing wrong with me!"
"Is that so?" Zhu Qingyan seemed skeptical. "You've had plenty of women around you, so why are you still a virgin?"
Pfft—
Hua Wenyue's laughter rang out, and Gu Feng's face instantly turned red. He shouted hoarsely, "What's so funny? I'm wholeheartedly pursuing the Supreme Great Path, and my unique Cultivation Method is a problem?
Why don't you go check on that female dragon? It's been so long since she caught any fish—maybe she's drowned!"
"Tch—" Hua Wenyue snorted lightly and turned to leave.
Gu Feng felt the sting of her disdain and muttered under his breath, "Tonight, I'll use you to break my virginity!"
"Hehehe, I'm not joking. You're too concerned about your constitution, afraid of disappointing the women around you!" Zhu Qingyan laughed until she was doubled over, then spoke seriously.
"As a cultivator, you defy the heavens and follow your nature. Don't wait until later to regret your past foolishness!"
"That little female dragon is extraordinary. She possesses a dense ancient Azure Dragon bloodline, almost on par with that old dragon of the lineage.
Unfortunately, you absorbed her Essence Blood. Frequent dual cultivation with her in the future will aid her growth, and she'll become a powerful ally for you..."
"..."
"I'll take Yan Xixi with me when I leave. I'm taking all the Spirit Herbs from here."
"Sister, you're really favoring yourself too much. These could be exchanged for a lot of Spirit Stones!" Gu Feng complained resentfully.
"You're so good at making money; you won't miss this little bit." Zhu Qingyan pursed her lips, then took out an Image Stone. "Let me show you something, and then you can leave her a message."
In the Image Stone, Yan Xixi had somehow created thunder, which struck her, leaving her charred on the outside but tender on the inside. She was laughing and recording something...
Looking at the thin figure in the projection, so persistent—persistent to the point of being laughable—Gu Feng felt a lump in his throat. After a long while, he asked softly,
"How long has she been doing this?"
"Several years, but you never knew."
"Tell her to wait for me in the Central Plains. I'll go find her."
"Is that a promise?"
"Yes."
...
Over the next period of time, Zhu Qingyan imparted a wealth of knowledge to him, covering a vast array of topics.
"Your Rune Art is as incomprehensible to me as your Alchemy. There might be great secrets hidden within... Your mastery of runes means you can't become an Artifact Refiner, but you'll have no problem forging fakes to scam money."
"Remember to find the Cultivation Method that complements the Soul Shattering Whip... I've already reforged the whip for you. In the future, you just need to integrate thunder-attributed Artifact Crafting Materials to keep it evolving."
"..."
"Sister, have some grilled fish before you leave!"
"Until we meet again in the Central Plains!" Zhu Qingyan smiled faintly, floating in the void as her figure gradually faded and vanished in an instant...
"Sister, I will definitely come to the Central Plains to find you!" Gu Feng shouted towards the sky, feeling an emptiness in his heart.
"What are you laughing at?" Before his melancholy could dissipate, he turned to see Hua Wenyue's teasing smile.
"Virgin boy!" Hua Wenyue casually blurted out while munching on grilled fish.
Gu Feng immediately bristled, glaring fiercely at Hua Wenyue. His gaze then fell on Long Xun'er beside her, who also wore a disdainful smile.
Fuming with anger, he secretly activated the 'Mother Seal' in his Sea of Consciousness to impose punishment. However, the next moment, he was utterly baffled. Long Xun'er only let out a single scream before returning to normal.
What's going on? It's malfunctioning!
"Don't waste your effort. Before Senior Zhu left, she made slight adjustments to the 'Mother Slave Seal.' Although the power of life and death and punishment still lies in your hands, I now have the authority to review punishments to prevent you from punishing her without reason!" Hua Wenyue crossed her arms, looking smug.
"What counts as punishing without reason?" Gu Feng asked through gritted teeth.
"For example, your outburst just now out of sheer frustration," Hua Wenyue replied nonchalantly.
"What the hell—whose mount is this anyway?!"
Gu Feng wailed in despair. Do I really need someone else's approval to punish my own mount? It's like I only have the power of life and death, but that doesn't threaten Long Xun'er at all. She'd rather die right now!
After all this effort, the Spirit Herb Garden was gone, and he only had half a mount left. The losses were devastating, and his heart ached so much he could barely breathe!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. With a roar, he scooped up Hua Wenyue and headed straight for the inner chamber of the Violet Starlight Sky-Piercing Disc: "Damn it—I'm furious right now. After today, let's see who dares call me a virgin boy!"
"You pervert, what are you trying to do?" Hua Wenyue struggled desperately, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free from Gu Feng's strong arms.
Is this really someone who just broke through to the Sea Condensation Realm? How is he so strong?
"You stole my mount, so I'll ride you instead!" Gu Feng laughed wickedly.
"What does that have to do with me? It was Senior Zhu's decision."
"You could have refused!"
"Are you even making sense?!!!"
Gu Feng paid no heed to her protests. His hands roamed all over her body, leaving her gasping for breath.
Boom—Boom—Boom—
"Sister, are you in there? Shi San is here to find you!"
At that moment, Shi San's mournful voice echoed from outside. Gu Feng was startled and immediately opened a projection to observe the situation outside.
Seeing Shi San alone with no other Dragon Clan members in sight, he was overjoyed!
"Hahaha, another mount delivered right to my doorstep. Cooperate with me later, or else—hmph!"
